聊一聊在圣誕節(jié)給親友編織的斗篷什么樣

今天的這段對話，在討論編織，
 
聊一聊在圣誕節(jié)給親友編織的斗篷什么樣
 
來聽今天的講解:
 
A: So we just had Christmas and I see your knitting bag is out, did you knit anything for anyone for Christmas?
 
我們剛剛過了圣誕節(jié)，我看到你的編織袋了，你在圣誕節(jié)的時候給誰織東西了嗎？
 
B: I started to knit for my granddaughters, but time caught up with me and I was making for them a poncho which consisted of two pieces, two oblong pieces which I will put together and make a poncho.
 
我開始給我的孫女們織東西，但是時間太趕了，我正在給她們織斗篷，斗篷包含兩片，兩個矩形，我會把它們組合在一起做成個斗篷。
 
A: That sounds pretty I think, but what will it look like when it's finished? Can you describe it?
 
那聽起來真不錯，可是那個斗篷完成的時候是什么樣子的？你能形容一下嗎？
 
B: A poncho is sort of like a shawl, only it is closed. You can wear it like a sweater. You pull it over your head but you don't have any arms. You just have the shawl affect.
 
斗篷有點像披肩，只不過斗篷是閉合的。你穿上的時候就像個毛衣一樣。你把斗篷從頭部套入，不過斗篷沒有袖子。就和披肩的效果是一樣的。
 
A: Oh, I've seen those. Those are actually quite popular now. So what colors did you make?
 
哦，我看到過那種斗篷?，F(xiàn)在斗篷非常流行。那你織的斗篷是什么顏色的？
 
B: I made a mixture of sand colors that's tan and browns and darker browns, sort of a mixture. It's a nice pretty soft yarn in the same colors. It just blends in.
 
我用了多種顏色，有棕褐色、棕色和深棕色，多種顏色的混合。還有相同顏色的柔軟的紗線。它們很好的融合在一起。
 
A: Oh, sounds great. I'm sure your granddaughter will love that. What else did you start to make?
 
聽起來真棒。我確定你的孫女們會喜歡的。你還有織別的東西嗎？
 
B: Well, I wanted to make also, I bought some ponchos and I started to put an edging around them but with crocheting, but it didn't look right.
 
嗯，我想，我買了一些斗篷，然后用鉤針給斗篷做邊飾，不過看起來不太好。
 
A: What's crocheting?
 
鉤針是什么？
 
B: Crocheting is another needle, single needle, that you stick into the wool, and use a thread and you pull it through and you can make decoration on anything that you have knitted, only you use a different needle, and a different method of decoration, but it didn't look right so I pulled it all out and it was fun trying out those things.
 
鉤針是另一種編織針，是單針，可以穿過羊毛，你用線穿過羊毛，就可以為你編織的東西進行裝飾，這只是用另一種編織針，采取另一種裝飾方法，不過我做的看起來不太好，所以我把它們都拆了，不過嘗試這些事情很有樂趣。
 
A: So when will you finish the, all of these projects do you think? Do you have a deadline?
 
那你認為你什么時候可以完成所有的這些編織呢？你有截止時間嗎？
 
B: Yes, I do, very shortly, I'm almost through.
 
有啊，很快，我已經快完成了。
